Im growing in this closet its 24x30 inches just to veg then when i flower i should have more room far as width. Be in a bigger closet but same stuff. Two plants one blueberry kush the other is girl scout cookie. Been vegging for about 5 weeks ive transplanted from solo cup to one gallon, then one gallon too five gallon thru this. I got fox farm grow big and big bloom. No can fan or proper ventilation as of now. Its my second grow working on that and hopefully a garage soon but moneys tight.i got a portable ac unit tho pumps some cold air then a big fan that just throws air inside and moves air in and out.
I wanna grow as much as i can off these two. Should i pinch the tops again make more sites or what u guys think is best been training em. How many more weeks should i veg. Maybe go buy something to help out more thats not that expensive Any ideas mean alot. Thanks guys last picks about the size of the other area imma move em too when i flip em

i would recommend a flip to 12/12 as i know the girl scout cookies doubles size in flowering and even if u have some extra space you want that space for air ventilation and light penetration in between the shoots. If the other closet/room you are putting them to flower in has lots of space then you might be able to top them one more time and veg them for another week and a half then do the flip to 12/12 but they are looking nice just looking into getting an inline fan as when i started to grow with hps temps and heat were always the issue till i got my exhaust fan set up.

Yeah i was thinking about topping one more time and vegging a bit longer. So vegging for another month would be a bad idea.??? What u think ill get if i flipped in one week verse four? Just wanna get the most I can Idk. Yeah its my second grow so in glad they looking good first grow was cfls in 2 gallon pots then i got the new light right after.far as the fan goes soon as the Holliday season is over imma buy that maybe a tent idk

I have a 6 ft tent and flipped my ak47 at 7 weeks and I'm at my max now and can't move my light up anymore...she finally stopped stretching but those babies will be trees if you let them go 8 weeks or longer. Mine is now 3 feet without the big pot. And it's supposed to be mainly indica but it stretched like a sativa lol

Yea bro I feel like they would be stretched out I really learned a lot growing and one of the biggest lessons I learned was that is not the size of the plant that matters you can have a short plant give you more weight than a tall plant you really want to concentrate on how much light you have and how much is going to penetrate so the buds can get nice and swollen not stretched and fluffy. I switched from cfls as well bro it's a big difference and your baby's look nice so keep it up brother.

I'll say go one more week cause they really do stretch out at least double during flowering sometimes even up to 3 times I'm growing some gsc right now and when I flipped them to 12/12 they were at 18 inches now one of them is at 36 and it's just the 2nd week Ibto flowering check out my thread so you can see my baby's

Youve got plenty of room to veg longer especially if you plan on upgrading ventilation or room size. they look pretty short now just super bushy. keep it up
